Target description

Tyrosine-protein kinase Mer (UniProt: Q12866; also known as EC:2.7.10.1, Proto-oncogene c-Mer, Receptor tyrosine kinase MerTK) is encoded by the MERTK (also known as MER) gene (Gene ID: 10461) in human. MerTK is a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-20), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form that contains an extracellular domain (aa 21-505), a transmembrane domain (aa 506-526), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 27-999). Its protein kinase domain is localized to amino acids 587-858. MerTK is highly expressed in testis, ovary, prostate, lung, and kidney tissue. Its expression is not observed in normal B- and T-cells but is expressed in several neoplastic B- and T-cell lines. Overexpression of MerTK has also been reported in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is involved in the regulation of cell survival, migration, differentiation, and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. It transduces signals from the extracellular matrix into the cytoplasm by binding to several ligands, including galectin-3, Tubby protein, Tubby-related protein 1, and GAS6, a member of the Axl subfamily of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases. Ligand binding at the cell surface induces autophosphorylation of MerTK on its intracellular domain that provides docking sites for downstream signaling molecules. Its autophosphorylation on tyrosine 749, 753, and 754 in the activation loop imparts full activity. It is also autophosphorylated on tyrosine 872 that leads to recruitment of downstream partners of the signaling cascade such as phospholipase C 2. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
